While we disagree severely, I am grateful to hear the “other side” in a civil discussion. I suspect the no-downvote policy of Beehaw enables this discussion and hope to find more of it.

I did not think that through.

Oh well, exclusive Lemmy access promo I guess. I’ll throw the Escapist an extra $10 on their next donation-enabled stream as an apology.

Well, inflation is real. And they are using sales income to fund current development. That’s as fair as it gets.

Would you be happy if they released it at 60$ and had periodic 60% sales?

Me, I wish more games respected my time like that, instead of costing 40$ and going on 20% sale every few weeks, leaving me to hunt bargain bins to be able to get it at its “efficient” price.
